One cup of spring greens is a vibrant mix of tender young lettuces, spinach, arugula, and other leafy greens, often used in salads or as a base for various dishes. Originating from a tradition of harvesting the first sprigs of springtime growth, these greens are a staple in many cuisines, from Mediterranean to American fare. Packed with nutrients, spring greens are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as folate, iron, and fiber. They are low in calories, making them an excellent choice for weight management and heart health. Their antioxidants support immune function and help combat inflammation. However, pairing them with heavy dressings or toppings could diminish their health benefits, so lighter accompaniments are recommended. Crisp, fresh, and versatile, a cup of spring greens is a delicious and nourishing addition to any meal.
